英语口语、习惯语、经典语录5000句(9)
81. He always looks deep in my eyes and says "thank you" in that smoky baritone, and I swear I think I'm going to melt. 他总是深情款款地看着我的双眼,用一种梦幻般的男中音说,谢谢你。我发誓,我都要融化了。注意,这里的look in 不能用look at 来代替。
82. He and I seem to be extremely compatible. But there is a problem. He doesn't open up to me and has his walls up. 他和我看起来是蛮匹配的,但还是有个问题,他对我并不是完全敞开,在我面前,他总是竖起一道墙。You need to take these possibilities that open up for you. 你应该抓住这些为你敞开的机会。
83. How is everything going between you and John? John is seeing another woman, so I kicked him to the curb. 你与约翰的关系怎样了?他跟另一个女人好上了,所以我把他给踢了。kick to the curb, 男女关系中一方把另一方给甩了,就是dump的意思,此词也可以意为“解雇”:A woman was kicked to the curb by the company for finding drug use in her hair sample. 公司解雇了一位女职工,因为在化验头发时,发现了她在使用毒品。
84. He is so important in my heart of hearts. in my heart of hearts, 比in my heart更强调:在我心灵的最深处,他是何等重要。
85. Wait for Mr. Right. Just keep your eyes and ears peeled. 耐心等待你的意中人,其实你只要时刻留意就行了。 peel的意思本来是“剥皮”,例如to peel potatoes,但在这里的意思是“睁大眼睛,竖起耳朵,留意”。keep one’s eyes peeled与keep a close eye on 几乎是同一个意思。Keep your eyes and ears peeled for the next challenge. 对下一项挑战,你一定要全神贯注。
86. When you meet someone you like, tell her/him. Don’t be afraid. It is normal to get knocked out. Expect to get rebuffed or rejected. 如果你喜欢上了一个人,就去告诉他/她好了。不要怕,如果被拒绝那是再正常不过的事。做好心理准备,会遭白眼。knock out, 是拳击里的术语,把谁给放倒了,get knocked out, 就是你去约别人时,被拒绝了。再看这句:Don't get knocked out in the second round of layoffs. 不要在第二轮解雇潮时给踢了。
87. Tell your boyfriend that you want the whole enchilada and will end the relationship if he does not step up. enchilada 是一种西班牙食品,类似我们的春卷,要整个的enchilada就是“要全部”的意思。“告诉你男朋友,他不能这么三心二意的,如果他不再完全投入的话,你就跟他断绝往来了。”We had the flowers, the speeches, the presents - the whole enchilada. 我们得到了鲜花、贺辞、礼物,总之应有尽有。enchilada也可以作“老板”解释:Ask the big enchilada what he really means. 问问大老板他究竟怎样打算。
88. For some reason, whenever I see her I feel like there is something there. But she says she doesn’t feel anything is there. 我每次见到她,冥冥中我总感到有那么点意思,但她说她从来就感觉不到有什么意思。
89. You need to get past the old relationship, lick your wounds, and learn your lessons, don’t get involved with a married man, and start a new page. 你就放弃这段情吧,打破牙齿和血吞(舔舔伤口),学段功课,以后不要再去和已婚男人纠缠,开始新的一页吧。
90. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.爱是恒久忍耐,又有恩慈。爱是不嫉妒。爱是不自夸。不张狂。不作害羞的事。不求自己的益处。不轻易发怒。不计算人的恶。不喜欢不义。只喜欢真理。凡事包容。凡事相信。凡事盼望。凡事忍耐。爱是永不止息。(林前13:4-8)这段话是对爱的最好的诠释。
